This book examines the phenomenon of physician-authors. Focusing on
the books that contemporary doctors write--the stories that they
tell--with contributors critically engaging their work. A selection
of original chapters from leading scholars in medical and health
humanities analyze the literary output of doctors, including Oliver
Sacks, Danielle Ofri, Atul Gawande, Louise Aronson, Siddhartha
Mukherjee, and Abraham Verghese. Discussing issues of moral meaning
in the works of contemporary doctor-writers, from memoir to poetry,
this collection reflects some of the diversity of medicine today. A
key reference for all students and scholars of medical and health
humanities, the book will be especially useful for those interested
in the relationship between literature and practising medicine.
